2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS

2.1 Revolving Credit Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender severally agrees to make revolving credit loans (“Loans”) in Dollars to any Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding for each Lender that, when added to such Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage of the L/C Obligations then outstanding, does not exceed the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. During the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, each Borrower may use the Revolving Credit Commitments by borrowing, prepaying in whole or in part, and reborrowing the Loans, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The Loans may from time to time be Eurodollar Loans or Base Rate Loans, as determined by the applicable Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.7.

2.2 Procedure for Revolving Credit Borrowing. Each Borrower may borrow under the Revolving Credit Commitments on any Business Day during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, provided that the applicable Borrower shall have given the Administrative Agent a borrowing request substantially in the form of Exhibit C, which Borrowing Request must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, (a) three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or (b) on the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Base Rate Loans; provided, however, that if a Borrower wishes to request Eurodollar Loans having an Interest Period of twelve months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” (i) the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, four Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Lenders of such request and determine whether each of the Lenders consents to such Interest Period and (ii) not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the requested Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all Lenders. Subject to Section 2.15, any Borrowing Request may be revoked by the applicable Borrower at any time prior to the requested borrowing of Loans being made available to such Borrower. Each Borrowing Request shall specify (A) the amount and Type of Loans to be borrowed, (B) the requested Borrowing Date and (C) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the length of the initial Interest Period therefor. If a Borrower requests a borrowing of Eurodollar Loans in any Borrowing Request, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. Each borrowing of Loans shall be in an aggregate amount equal to (x) in the case of Base Rate Loans, $500,000 or a whole multiple thereof (or in the amount equal to the aggregate Available Revolving

Credit Commitments then remaining) and (y) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Upon receipt of any Borrowing Request, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. Each Lender will make its Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount of each borrowing of Loans available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s Office prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Borrowing Date requested by such Borrower in immediately available funds. Such borrowing will then be promptly made available to (or as directed by) such Borrower by the Administrative Agent in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

2.3 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount on the Revolving Credit Termination Date (or on such earlier date on which the Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 8.2) of each Loan made to such Borrower by such Lender. Each Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans made to such Borrower by such Lender from time to time outstanding from the Closing Date until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 2.9.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender by each Borrower from time to time under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 10.7(c), and a subaccount therein for each Lender. The accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to this Section 2.3(b) and the entries in the Register shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrowers therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain any such account or the Register, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of each Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to it by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

(c) In addition to the accounts and records referred to herein above, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Fronted Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

(d) Each Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, it will execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note evidencing any Loans made by such Lender to such Borrower, substantially in the form of Exhibit D, with appropriate

insertions as to date and principal amount. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

2.4 Facility Fee; Administrative Agent Fees. (a) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a facility fee, computed at the Facility Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender (or, if the Revolving Credit Commitments have been terminated, on the outstanding amount of Revolving Credit Exposure of such Lender) during the period for which payment is made, regardless of usage, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.20. The facility fee shall accrue at all times during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period (and thereafter so long as any Revolving Credit Exposure remains outstanding), including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Section 4.2 is not met, and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day of each of January, April, July and October and on the last day of the Revolving Credit Commitment Period (and, if applicable, thereafter on demand), commencing on the first of such dates to occur after the Closing Date. The facility fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Facility Fee Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Facility Fee Rate separately for each period during such quarter that the Facility Fee Rate was in effect.

The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any notice of termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments. Any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permanent and shall be applied to the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Lender according to its Revolving Credit Percentage.

2.6 Prepayments. (a) Each Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans made to such Borrower, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon notice delivered to the Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, (i) at least three Business Days prior thereto in the case of Eurodollar Loans, and (ii) on the date of prepayment,

If any such notice is given and not revoked as set forth above, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Base Rate Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid.

(b) If for any reason the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit at any time exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect, the Borrowers shall immediately prepay the Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) unless after the prepayment in full of the Loans the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect.

The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in any interest rate. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which such Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which such Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(d), bear interest for one day.

(b) In the event that any Compliance Certificate delivered under Section 6.2(a) shall prove to have been inaccurate, and such inaccuracy shall have resulted in the payment of any interest or fees at rates lower than those that were in fact applicable for any period (based on the actual Total Consolidated Debt to Total Consolidated Capitalization Ratio), then, if such inaccuracy is discovered prior to the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the repayment in full of the principal of all Loans and the reduction of the L/C Obligations to zero, the Borrowers shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to any Borrower under any Debtor Relief Law, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender under this Agreement.

(c) Each determination of Eurodollar Rate and Base Rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error.

2.11 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

(a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or

(b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall give notice (which may be telephonic) thereof to the Borrowers and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (i) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans (or the Borrowing Request therefor may be revoked by the applicable Borrower), (ii) any Base Rate Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as Base Rate Loans and (iii) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, to Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, (x) no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, (y) the Borrowers shall not have the right to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans and (z) the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended.

2.12 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Subject to Section 2.20, each borrowing by any Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, and any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders, shall be made pro rata according to the respective Revolving Credit Percentages of the Lenders. Subject to Section 2.20, each payment by the Borrowers on account of any facility fee, Letter of Credit participation fee, or interest on the Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective amounts thereof owed to the Lenders.

(b) Subject to Section 2.20, each payment (including each prepayment) by any Borrower on account of principal of the Loans of such Borrower shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans of the Borrowers then held by the Lenders. Each payment in respect of Reimbursement Obligations in respect of any Fronted Letter of Credit shall be made to the relevant Issuing Lender.

(c) Unless otherwise directed by the Borrowers, the application of any payment of Loans shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans.

(d) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff and shall be made prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lenders or Issuing Lenders, at the Administrative Agent’s Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Any payment made by the Borrowers after 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been made on the next following Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments received for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders to the relevant Lenders or Issuing Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding sentence, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

(e) Unless the applicable Borrower or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent, prior to the time any payment is required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent hereunder, that such Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make

available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then:

(i) if any Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect; and

(ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage of the applicable Revolving Credit Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the applicable Borrower, and such Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Revolving Credit Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Revolving Credit Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrowers with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (e) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(f) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Fronted Letters of Credit or drawings under Pro Rata Letters of Credit and to make payments under Section 10.6 are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or drawing or to make any payment under Section 10.6 on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender so to make its Loan, to fund any such participation or drawing or to make its payment under Section 10.6.

2.13 Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption or taking effect of or any change in any applicable Law or in the administration, interpretation, implementation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or compliance by any Lender with any request, rule, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made or occurring subsequent to the Closing Date:

(i) shall subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of or advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on any Lender or any Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan to the Borrowers or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit issued at the request of the Borrowers, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrowers shall pay such Lender, after submission by such Lender to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written certificate referred to in Section 2.13(d), such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13, it shall promptly notify the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any applicable Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements or in the administration, interpretation, implementation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of Law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the Closing Date shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written certificate referred to in Section 2.13(d), the

Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction.

(c) In addition to, and without duplication of, amounts that may become payable from time to time pursuant to Section 2.13(a) or 2.13(b), each Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender that submits a written certificate referred to in Section 2.13(d), on the last day of each Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender to such Borrower (or, if later, within the period referred to in Section 2.13(d)), at any time when such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves against “Eurocurrency liabilities” under Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, an additional amount (determined by such Lender’s reasonable calculation or, if an accurate calculation is impracticable, reasonable estimate using such reasonable means of allocation as such Lender shall determine) equal to the actual costs, if any, incurred by such Lender during such Interest Period as a result of the applicability of the foregoing reserves to such Eurodollar Loan.

(d) A Lender seeking any payment under this Section 2.13 shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a certificate of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender, as the case may be, as specified in Section 2.13(a), 2.13(b) or 2.13(c), and such certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount payable under this Section 2.13 within 30 days after receipt thereof. The obligations of the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.13, (i) no Lender shall be entitled to compensation under this Section 2.13 for any costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrowers of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor, provided that if a change of law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof, and (ii) no Lender shall request, or be entitled to receive, any compensation under this Section 2.13 unless it shall be the general policy and practice of such Lender to seek corresponding compensation from similarly situated borrowers in the U.S. syndicated loan market with respect to its similarly affected loans under agreements with such borrowers having provisions similar to this Section 2.13.

(f) For purposes of this Agreement, (i) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith (whether or not having the force of Law) and (ii) all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities (whether or not having the force of Law), in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall, in the case of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), be deemed to have been adopted after the Closing Date, regardless of the date enacted or adopted.

2.14 Taxes. (a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.14, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower or any Guarantor under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by such Borrower or such Guarantor (as applicable) shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without duplication of Section 2.14(b), the Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers and each Guarantor shall indemnify each Recipient, within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.14) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Borrower and any Guarantor has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of any Borrower and any Guarantor to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.7(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph.

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Borrower or any Guarantor to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.14, such Borrower or such Guarantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(g) Status of Lenders. (h) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.14(g)(ii)(A), 2.14(g)(ii)(B) and 2.14(g)(ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any Borrower is a U.S. Borrower:

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable

payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(ii) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of such Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or

(iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to such Borrower and the

Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for such Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund or credit in lieu of a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.14 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund or credit in lieu of a refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit in lieu of a refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit in lieu of a refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund or credit in lieu of a refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund or credit in lieu of a refund had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

2.15 Compensation for Losses. Each Borrower agrees, from time to time after submission by such Lender to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a certificate referred to below, to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of (a) default by such Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after such Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (other than any notice revoked as contemplated under Section 2.11 and other than any failure to borrow as a result of a failure to make a Loan by any Lender as required hereunder), (b) default by such Borrower in making any prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan after such Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (regardless of whether such notice has been revoked as permitted by Section 2.6) or (c) the making by such Borrower of a prepayment or conversion of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto; provided that any request for indemnification made by a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be made within six months of the incurrence of the loss or expense requested to be indemnified. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure), in each case at the applicable Eurodollar Rate provided for herein (determined without regard to any floor set forth in the definition thereof) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the London interbank market. In no event shall such loss or expense include the loss of anticipated profits or loss of any interest rate floor or interest rate margin or any administrative, processing or similar fees. A Lender seeking any payment under this Section 2.15 shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a certificate of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15, and such certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount payable under this Section 2.15 within 30 days after receipt thereof. The obligations of the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.16 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any applicable Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate as contemplated by this Agreement, then upon delivery by such Lender of written notice of such circumstances to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, (a) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make or maintain such Loans and convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may make or maintain such Loans and convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans hereunder and (b) such Lender’s then outstanding Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans (without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component thereof) on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Eurodollar Loans or within such earlier period as required by Law, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate shall

forthwith be determined without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the definition of “Base Rate.” If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan to a Base Rate Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.15.

2.17 Change of Office. Each Lender and Issuing Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event that it knows to give rise to the operation of Sections 2.13, 2.14(b), 2.14(c), 2.14(d) or 2.16 with respect to such Lender or Issuing Lender, it will use all commercially reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender or Issuing Lender) to designate another lending or issuing office for any Loans or Letters of Credit affected by such event, or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder with respect to such Loans or Letters of Credit to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided that such designation is made on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender or Issuing Lender, cause such Lender or Issuing Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section 2.17 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.14(b), 2.14(c), 2.14(d) or 2.16. The Borrowers hereby jointly and severally agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or Issuing Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

2.18 Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances. The Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Lender and the Administrative Agent, require any Lender (a) that requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.13 or gives a notice under Section 2.16, (b) with respect to which any Borrower is required to pay any amounts under Section 2.14, (c) that is a Defaulting Lender or (d) that fails to approve any amendment, waiver or consent which, pursuant to Section 10.1, requires the approval of each Lender or each affected Lender, and which is approved by at least the Majority Lenders, to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.7), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.14) to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that (i) such assignment does not conflict with any applicable Law, (ii) with respect to a condition described in clause (a) or (b) above, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter, (iii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and, if applicable, participations in drawings under Fronted Letters of Credit, accrued interest thereon, accrued facility fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (including pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.18) from the assignee (in the case of such principal and accrued interest and accrued fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts), (iv) except with respect to clause (c) above, each Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.15 (as though Section 2.15 were applicable) if any Eurodollar Loan to such Borrower owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto and (v) any such assignment shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise,

the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment and delegation required pursuant to this Section 2.18 may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment and delegation need not be a party thereto.

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender, if (i) as of the day that is one month prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, Letters of Credit issued for the account of any Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Company with expiry dates occurring after the Revolving Credit Termination Date remain outstanding, the applicable Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize 100% of the then outstanding amount of all L/C Obligations in respect of such Letters of Credit and (ii) as of the Revolving Credit Termination Date, any L/C Obligations in respect of any Fronted Letters of Credit (which are not Cash Collateralized in accordance with clause (i) above or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) for any reason remain outstanding, the applicable Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize 100% of the then outstanding amount of all such L/C Obligations. At any time that there shall exist a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender, promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender, the applicable Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender).

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at the Administrative Agent. The Borrowers and, to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grant to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.19(c). If at any time the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any priority right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of Cash Collateral provided in respect of any applicable Fronting Exposure and/or relevant L/C Obligations, in each case, for which Cash Collateral is required to be provided pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, is less than the amount of such Fronting Exposure and/or such L/C Obligations, as the case may be, the Borrowers or, in the case of any applicable Fronting Exposure, the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent (and in any event, within three (3) Business Days thereafter), pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.19 or Section 2.6(b), 2.20, 3.1 or 8.2 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C

Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and, in the case of any Defaulting Lender, other funding obligations, for which the Cash Collateral was so provided (or in the case of any Defaulting Lender, deemed provided).

(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure, to collateralize L/C Obligations or, in the case of Cash Collateral provided or deemed provided by any Defaulting Lender, to collateralize funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender shall, in each case, be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure, L/C Obligations or such funding obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 10.7(b)(vi))) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of the Borrowers shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the applicable Issuing Lender may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or, in the case of Cash Collateral provided or deemed provided by any Defaulting Lender, funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender.

2.20 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Majority Lenders” and Section 10.1.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8.2 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.8), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders hereunder; third, if so reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by any Issuing Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Fronted Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrowers may request, to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists) or as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender under any Pro

Rata Letter of Credit; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held as Cash Collateral in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans or provide Cash Collateral for Fronting Exposure under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or any Issuing Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Fronted L/C Borrowings in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or Fronted L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Fronted L/C Borrowings owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Fronted L/C Borrowings owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Fronted Letters of Credit are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Percentages without giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by such Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.20(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. Such Defaulting Lender (x) shall be entitled to receive facility fees pursuant to Section 2.4 for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender only on the average daily amount of the sum of (1) the outstanding principal amount of its Loans and (2) its Revolving Credit Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.20(a)(ii) or 3.1 (and the Borrowers shall (A) be required to pay to each Issuing Lender the amount of such fee allocable to its Fronting Exposure arising from such Defaulting Lender and (B) not be required to pay the remaining amount of such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive letter of credit fees as provided in Section 3.8.

(iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender, (A) in the case of Fronted Letters of Credit, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Fronted Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 3.3, the “Revolving

Credit Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender and (B) in the case of Pro Rata Letters of Credit, (1) for purposes of determining obligations of Lenders under any Pro Rata Letter of Credit issued during such period pursuant to Sections 3.1 and 3.3, the “Revolving Credit Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender and (2) the Issuing Agent agrees to amend (and the Lenders authorize the Issuing Agent to amend) each Pro Rata Letter of Credit outstanding at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender to modify the obligations of the non-Defaulting Lenders thereunder to be consistent with clause (1) above, provided, in each case under this clause (iv), that after giving effect thereto the Available Revolving Credit Commitment of any non-Defaulting Lender shall not be less than zero.

(v) Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to them hereunder or under applicable Law, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.19.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Credit Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.

3. LETTERS OF CREDIT

3.1 L/C Commitment.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Fronting Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in Section 3.3, agrees to issue standby letters of credit (the “Fronted Letters of Credit”) for the account of any Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Company and to amend or extend Fronted Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 3.2(b), on any Business Day during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period in such form as may be approved from time to time by such Fronting Issuing Lender (such

approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no Fronting Issuing Lender shall issue any Fronted Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitments.

(b) (i) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (A) the Issuing Agent agrees to issue standby letters of credit (the “Pro Rata Letters of Credit”) on behalf of each Lender for the account of any Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Company and to amend or extend Pro Rata Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 3.2(b), on any Business Day during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, each Pro Rata Letter of Credit to be substantially in the form of Exhibit F or in such other form as may be approved from time to time by the Issuing Agent (such approval not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and (B) each Lender severally agrees to honor its Revolving Credit Percentage of drawings under each Pro Rata Letter of Credit; provided that the Issuing Agent shall not issue any Pro Rata Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitments.

(ii) Each Pro Rata Letter of Credit and any amendment thereto or extension thereof will be issued or made by the Issuing Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and the obligations of each Lender under any Pro Rata Letter of Credit will be based on such Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage in effect from time to time.

(iii) Each Pro Rata Letter of Credit shall be executed and delivered by the Issuing Agent in the name and on behalf of, and as attorney-in-fact for, each Lender, and the Issuing Agent shall act under each Pro Rata Letter of Credit, and each Pro Rata Letter of Credit shall expressly provide that the Issuing Agent shall act, as the agent of each Lender, to (A) receive drafts, other demands for payment and other documents presented by the beneficiary under such Pro Rata Letter of Credit, (B) determine whether such drafts, demands and documents are in compliance with the terms and conditions of such Pro Rata Letter of Credit and (C) notify such Lender and the applicable Borrower that a valid drawing has been made; provided that the Issuing Agent shall have no obligation or liability for any payment under such Pro Rata Letter of Credit (other than, to the extent of its Revolving Credit Percentage in effect from time to time, in its capacity as a Lender), and each Pro Rata Letter of Credit shall expressly so provide. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and designates the Issuing Agent as its attorney-in-fact, acting through any duly authorized officer of the Issuing Agent, to execute and deliver in the name and on behalf of such Lender each Pro Rata Letter of Credit to be issued by such Lender hereunder and from time to time to amend and extend such Pro Rata Letter of Credit in a manner consistent with the provisions hereof (including amendments to reflect changes in the Revolving Credit Percentages of the Lenders). Promptly upon the request of the Issuing Agent, each Lender will furnish to the Issuing Agent such powers of attorney or other evidence as any beneficiary of any Pro Rata Letter of Credit may reasonably request in order to demonstrate that the Issuing Agent has the power to act as attorney-in-fact for such Lender to execute, deliver and amend such Pro Rata Letter of Credit.

(c) Each Letter of Credit (i) shall be denominated in Dollars and (ii) shall expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, the first anniversary of the date of such renewal or extension) and (y) the date which is one year after the Revolving Credit Termination Date, provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the extension thereof for additional one-year periods as set forth in Section 3.2(c) (it being understood that in the event the expiry date of any requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Revolving Credit Termination Date, all L/C Obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit shall be Cash Collateralized no later than the later of its date of issuance (or the date of the most recent renewal or extension thereof) and the date one month prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date in accordance with Section 2.19).

(d) No Issuing Lender shall at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if:

(i) such issuance would conflict with, or would cause such Issuing Lender or, in the case of any Pro Rata Letter of Credit, any Lender to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Law;

(ii) such issuance would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Lender or, in the case of any Pro Rata Letter of Credit, any Lender applicable to letters of credit generally;

(iii) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender or, in the case of any Pro Rata Letter of Credit, any Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such Issuing Lender or, in the case of any Fronted Letter of Credit, any Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender or, in the case of any Fronted Letter of Credit, any Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender or, in the case of any Fronted Letter of Credit, any Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular; or

(iv) in the case of Fronted Letters of Credit only, any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless such Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to such Issuing Lender (in its sole discretion) with the applicable Borrower or such Lender to eliminate such Issuing Lender’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv)) with respect to such Defaulting Lender arising from either the Fronted Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or such Fronted Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations under Fronted Letters of Credit as to which such Issuing Lender has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion; provided, however, that in the event that the applicable Borrower delivers Cash Collateral in accordance with the terms hereof, such Issuing Lender shall not be entitled to rely on this clause (iv) as justification for not issuing such Fronted Letter of Credit.

3.2 Procedure for Issuance, Amendment or Extension of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit. (a) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended or extended, as the case may be, upon the request of any Borrower delivered to the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of an Application, completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of such Borrower, provided that no Application shall be required to be delivered in connection with any extension of an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit. Such Application must be received by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the applicable Issuing Lender may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of issuance, amendment or extension, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender: (i) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount thereof, (iii) the expiry date thereof, (iv) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof, (v) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder, (vi) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder, (vii) whether the requested Letter of Credit is a Fronted Letter of Credit or a Pro Rata Letter of Credit and (viii) such other matters as the applicable Issuing Lender may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender: (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended or extended, (B) the proposed date of amendment or extension thereof (which shall be a Business Day), (C) the nature of the proposed amendment or the extended expiry date thereof and (D) such other matters as the applicable Issuing Lender may reasonably require. Additionally, the applicable Borrower shall furnish to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance, amendment or extension, including any Issuer Documents, as such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require.

(b) Promptly after receipt of any Application, the applicable Issuing Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Application from the applicable Borrower (and, if not, the applicable Issuing Lender will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof) and that, after giving effect to the applicable issuance, amendment or extension of the applicable Letter of Credit, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitments. Unless the applicable Issuing Lender has received written notice from the Majority Lenders or the Administrative Agent, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 4.2 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the applicable Issuing Lender shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary of the Company or enter into the applicable amendment or extension, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Issuing Lender’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Fronted Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable Issuing Lender a risk participation in such Fronted Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage times the amount of such Fronted Letter of Credit.

(c) If the applicable Borrower so requests in any applicable Application, the applicable Issuing Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit such Issuing Lender to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing Lender, the applicable Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Lender for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such Issuing Lender to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit; provided, however, that such Issuing Lender shall not permit any such extension if (i) such Issuing Lender has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 3.1 or otherwise) or (ii) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the date that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Majority Lenders or the Administrative Agent that one or more of the applicable conditions contained in Section 4.2 shall not then be satisfied, and in each such case directing such Issuing Lender not to permit such extension.

(d) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to or extension of any Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Lender will also deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit (if applicable, as so amended or extended).

3.3 Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. (a) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. In such event, (i) in the case of a drawing under any Fronted Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender, through the Administrative Agent, for the amount of such drawing under such Fronted Letter of Credit not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that such drawing is made, if the applicable Borrower has received notice from the applicable Issuing Lender of such drawing prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if the applicable Borrower has not received notice of such drawing prior to such time on such date, then not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on (A) the Business Day that the applicable Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (B) the Business Day immediately following the day that the applicable Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of such receipt (the date on which such reimbursement by the applicable Borrower is due pursuant to this clause being referred to herein as the “Requested Reimbursement Date”), and (ii) in the case of a drawing under any Pro Rata Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have obtained on the date of such drawing a Base Rate Loan from each Lender in an amount equal to the amount of disbursement funded by such Lender under such Pro Rata Letter of Credit (it being understood that the minimum and multiples, and notice periods, specified

in Section 2.2 shall not apply to such Base Rate Loans), and the applicable Borrower’s obligations in respect of such drawing shall on such date be deemed to be discharged and replaced by the resulting Base Rate Loans. If the applicable Borrower fails to make the reimbursement of a drawing under any Fronted Letter of Credit by the time set forth above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Requested Reimbursement Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage thereof. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Requested Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount (it being understood that the minimum and multiples, and notice periods, specified in Section 2.2 shall not apply to such Base Rate Loans). Any such Base Rate Loans may from time to time be converted to Eurodollar Loans, as determined by the applicable Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.7. Any notice given by any Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 3.3(a) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(b) Each Lender (including any Lender acting as the applicable Issuing Lender) shall, upon receipt of any notice pursuant to Section 3.3(a) in respect of a drawing under a Fronted Letter of Credit, make funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount in respect of such Fronted Letter of Credit not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 3.3(a), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the applicable Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received and any Cash Collateral so applied to such Issuing Lender.

(c) If any drawing is made under any Fronted Letter of Credit and is not reimbursed or refinanced on the date such drawing is made, for any reason, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable Issuing Lender a Fronted L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so reimbursed or refinanced, which Fronted L/C Borrowing (i) shall bear interest at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans from and including the date that such drawing is paid by such Issuing Lender to but excluding the earlier of the date that such Unreimbursed Amount is so reimbursed or refinanced or the date that is the next Business Day following the Requested Reimbursement Date and, if not so reimbursed or refinanced on or prior to the date that is the next Business Day following the Requested Reimbursement Date, then, from and after the date that is the next Business Day following the Requested Reimbursement Date to but excluding the date so reimbursed or refinanced, the Default Rate specified therefor in Section 2.9(c) and (ii) shall, on and after the date that is the next Business Day following the Requested Reimbursement Date, be due and payable on demand. In such event with respect to any Fronted Letter of Credit, each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.3(b) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such Fronted L/C Borrowing and shall constitute a Fronted L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 3.3.

(d) Until each Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or Fronted L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 3.3 to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for any amount drawn under any Fronted Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of such Issuing Lender.

(e) Each Lender’s obligation to make Base Rate Loans or Fronted L/C Advances to reimburse each Issuing Lender for amounts drawn under Fronted Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 3.3, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against any Issuing Lender, the applicable Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (iii) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Base Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 3.3 (other than any Base Rate Loans that are deemed to be made upon a drawing under any Pro Rata Letter of Credit) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Loan Notice). No such making of a Fronted L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the applicable Borrower to reimburse each Issuing Lender for the amount of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under any Fronted Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(f) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, any amount required to be paid by such Lender in respect of any Fronted Letter of Credit pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.3 by the time specified in Section 3.3(b), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate as reasonably determined by such Issuing Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such Issuing Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Base Rate Loan included in the relevant borrowing or Fronted L/C Advance in respect of the relevant Fronted L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of an Issuing Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph (f) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

3.4 Repayment of Participations. (a) At any time after the applicable Issuing Lender has made a payment under any Fronted Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s Fronted L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 3.3(b), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such Issuing Lender any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the applicable Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Revolving Credit Percentage thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s Fronted L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(b) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.3(b) in respect of a Fronted Letter of Credit is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in the second sentence of Section 10.17 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Issuing Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender its Revolving Credit Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

3.5 Obligations Absolute. The obligation of each Borrower to reimburse or refinance each drawing under any Letter of Credit and to repay each Fronted L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right that the applicable Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Company may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the applicable Issuing Lender or Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(iv) any payment by the applicable Issuing Lender or Lender under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the applicable Issuing Lender or Lender under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or

3.6 Role of Issuing Lender. Each Lender and each Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Fronted Letter of Credit, no Issuing Lender shall have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by such Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Issuing Lenders or any Related Persons, correspondents or participants of any Issuing Lender shall be liable to any Lender for (a) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Majority Lenders, as applicable, (b) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct or (c) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or any Application. Each Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude any Borrower pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Issuing Lenders, the Lenders, any Related Persons of any of the foregoing or any correspondents or participants of any Issuing Lender shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 3.5; provided, however, that anything in such clauses (i) through (v) to the contrary notwithstanding, each Borrower may have a claim against the applicable Issuing Lender or Lender, and such Issuing Lender or Lender may be liable to such Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by such Borrower which were caused by such Issuing Lender’s or Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such Issuing Lender’s or Lender’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and no Issuing Lender shall be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. Each Issuing Lender shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each Lender agrees that each Issuing Lender shall have all of the benefits and immunities provided to the Administrative Agent in Article 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such Issuing Lender in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article 9 included each Issuing Lender with respect to such acts or omissions.

respective Revolving Credit Percentages and payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date; provided, however, that (i) any letter of credit fees otherwise payable pursuant to this paragraph for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Fronted Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.1 shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Revolving Credit Percentages allocable to such Fronted Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.20(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the applicable Issuing Lender for its own account, (ii) the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any letter of credit fees pursuant to this paragraph in respect of such portion of the outstanding Fronted Letters of Credit for which it has furnished Cash Collateral in accordance with the terms hereof to reduce the Fronting Exposure of any Defaulting Lender and (iii) any letter of credit fees otherwise payable pursuant to this paragraph for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Pro Rata Letter of Credit shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Revolving Credit Percentages with respect to such Pro Rata Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.20(a)(iv), and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay the balance of any such letter of credit fees. In addition, the Borrowers shall pay to each Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee on the daily amount available to be drawn under all outstanding Fronted Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender at a rate and at the times separately agreed upon by the Borrowers and such Issuing Lender.

Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries of the Company is being made at the request of such Borrower and in reliance on such Borrower’s agreement to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender (or, as applicable, all Lenders) hereunder for any and all drawings under any such Letter of Credit.

Except for the Company’s rights expressly set forth in Sections 9.7 and 9.9, the provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, and the Borrowers shall not have rights as third party beneficiaries of any of such provisions.

9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Persons. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Persons of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. (a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise or that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and

(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable to the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.1 and 8.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by a Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Lender.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Loan Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or to confirm, where applicable, its satisfaction with or acceptance of any document or other matter where such satisfaction or acceptance is expressly required under the Loan Documents.

9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 4.1, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative

Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.

9.5 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or Issuing Lender or any of their Related Persons and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or Issuing Lender or any of their Related Persons and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

9.6 Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender or an Issuing Lender as any other Lender or Issuing Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lenders” and “Issuing Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or Issuing Lenders.

9.7 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Company at all times other than during the continuance of a Specified Event of Default (which consent of the Company shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If such a successor is appointed and has accepted such appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice, such resignation shall be effective upon such appointment and acceptance. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then (a) such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice, (b) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in its capacity as the Administrative Agent (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or any Issuing Lender under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (c)

all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Lenders directly, until such time as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Sections 10.5 and 10.6 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Persons in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

If a successor has accepted its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, and such successor either has been consented to by the Company as set forth above or the Company has otherwise confirmed in writing that such successor is reasonably acceptable to the Company, any resignation by U.S. Bank as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as an Issuing Lender and the Issuing Agent, and such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of U.S. Bank as the retiring Issuing Lender and the retiring Issuing Agent and U.S. Bank as the retiring Issuing Lender and the retiring Issuing Agent shall be discharged from all of its respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, except that U.S. Bank shall retain all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender and the Issuing Agent hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an Issuing Lender and the Issuing Agent and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 3.3) but shall not be required to issue any additional Letters of Credit. The successor Issuing Lender or the successor Issuing Agent shall issue Letters of Credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to U.S. Bank, the Company and the beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit to effectively assume the obligations of U.S. Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

9.8 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower or any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each Issuing Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.4(c), 10.5 and 10.6.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any Issuing Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder or the rights of any Lender or any Issuing Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or any Issuing Lender or in any such proceeding.

10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. (a) No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Borrowers or the Guarantors shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.2 for the benefit of all the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) an Issuing Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as an Issuing Lender) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (iii) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.8(b) (subject to the terms of Section 10.8(a)) or (iv) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Borrower or any Guarantor under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (A) the Majority Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.2 and (B) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 10.8(a), any Lender may, with the consent of the Majority Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Majority Lenders.

All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any extension of credit. All covenants and agreements made by the Borrowers and the Guarantors in the Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit or Reimbursement Obligation is outstanding and so long as the Revolving Credit Commitments have not expired or terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in the event that, in connection with the refinancing or repayment in full of the credit facility provided for herein, any Issuing Lender shall have provided to the Administrative Agent a written consent to the release of the Lenders from their obligations hereunder with respect to any Fronted Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender (whether as a result of the obligations of the Borrowers (and any other account party) in respect of such Letter of Credit having been collateralized in full by a deposit of cash with such Issuing Lender, or being supported by a letter of credit that names such Issuing Lender as the beneficiary thereunder, or otherwise), then from and after such time such Fronted Letter of Credit shall cease to be a “Letter of Credit” outstanding hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Lenders shall be deemed to have no participations in such Fronted Letter of Credit, and no obligations with respect thereto, under Section 3.3.

In all such litigation, or the preparation therefor, the Indemnitees shall be entitled to select counsel to the Indemnitees. All amounts due under this Section 10.6 shall be payable not later than 30 days following written demand. This

Section 10.6(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

(b) To the extent that any Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 10.5 or 10.6(a) to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any Issuing Lender or any Agent-Related Person of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Lender or such Agent-Related Person, as the case may be, such Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Issuing Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Agent-Related Person of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or Issuing Lender in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.6(b) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(f).

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrowers and each Indemnitee shall not assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing in this sentence shall affect the obligations of the Borrowers under Section 10.6(a). Neither the Borrowers nor any Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by or on behalf of the Borrowers or such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, other than, in the case of any Indemnitee, for direct or actual damages that are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of such Indemnitee’s Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact or (ii) a material breach in bad faith by such Indemnitee or any of such Indemnitee’s Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(d) The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Total Revolving Credit Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other obligations.

(C) the consent of each Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment and delegation that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Fronted Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding).

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment and delegation shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment and delegation. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment or delegation shall be made (A) to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates, (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any Person that, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), (C) to a natural person, (D) to an Approved Fund unless a Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (E) to any Person which at the time of such assignment or delegation (1) does not have a long-term deposit rating of A or higher by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC and A2 or higher by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or (2) has not been approved by the Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC.

(vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment and delegation of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such

assignment or delegation shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties thereto shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by such Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Revolving Credit Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment and delegation of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(vii) Amendment of Pro Rata Letters of Credit. As of the effective date of such assignment and delegation, each Pro Rata Letter of Credit then outstanding shall be amended in accordance with the terms thereof to reflect the Revolving Credit Percentages of the Lenders after giving effect to such assignment and delegation.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.7(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned and delegated by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned and delegated by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15, 10.5 and 10.6 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrowers (at their expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender and a replacement Note, as applicable, to the assigning Lender. Any assignment or delegation by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that does not comply with this Section 10.7(b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.7(d).

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non‑fiduciary agent of the Borrowers (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Credit Commitments of, and principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the Loans and L/C Obligations

owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. (i) General. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender, or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations) owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent under, any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in clause (a), (b), (c) or (d) of the first proviso to Section 10.1 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 10.7(d)(iii), the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.14(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.14(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.7(b); provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.17 and 2.18 as if it were an assignee under Section 10.7(b). Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Company’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Company to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.18 with respect to any Participant (with the provisions of such Section applying, mutatis mutandis, to such Lender on account of any reimbursement requests made by or any amounts paid or payable on account of such Participant). To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.8(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 10.8(a) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) Participant Register. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the

Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(iii) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 unless the Borrowers are notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Sections 2.14(g) as though it were a Lender.

(e) Certain Pledges. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender may, with notice to, but without prior consent of the Company and the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank, provided that notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall not be required in the case of a pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank; provided further that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute, or permit the substitution of, any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

(g) Resignation as Issuing Lender and Issuing Agent after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time U.S. Bank assigns all of its Revolving Credit Commitment and Loans pursuant to Section 10.7(b), U.S. Bank may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrowers and the Lenders, resign as an Issuing Lender and the Issuing Agent, so long as a successor Issuing Lender and Issuing Agent (which shall have been approved in writing

by the Company, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) has been appointed and has accepted such appointment. If such a successor has accepted its appointment as an Issuing Lender and the Issuing Agent, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of U.S. Bank as the retiring Issuing Lender and the retiring Issuing Agent, and U.S. Bank as the retiring Issuing Lender and the retiring Issuing Agent shall be discharged from all of its respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, except that U.S. Bank shall retain all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender and the Issuing Agent hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an Issuing Lender and the Issuing Agent and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 3.3) but shall not be required to issue any additional Letters of Credit. The successor Issuing Lender or the successor Issuing Agent shall issue Letters of Credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to U.S. Bank, the Company and the beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit to effectively assume the obligations of U.S. Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

10.8 Adjustments; Setoff. (a) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of (i) any Loans and other amounts due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (x) such Loans and other amounts due and payable to such Lender at such time to (y) the aggregate amount of Loans and other amounts due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of Loans and other amounts due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (ii) Loans and other amounts owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (x) the amount of such Loans and other amounts owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender at such time to (y) the aggregate amount of Loans and other amounts owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payment on account of Loans and other amounts owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (A) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and (B) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and subparticipations in L/C Obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of Loans and other amounts then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but not due and payable) to the Lenders, as the case may be, provided that:

(i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section 10.8(a) shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of

funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.19, or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 10.8(a) shall apply).

Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrowers, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable Law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrowers hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and not paid when due, to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so setoff shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.20 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) such Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers, as the case may be, and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

10.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

10.10 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.10, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting

Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

10.11 Integration. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Fee Letter represent the entire agreement of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements among the parties, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein, in the other Loan Documents or in the Fee Letter. The Borrowers agree that its obligations under the Fee Letter shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives as need to know such Information (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any bank regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it, (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.16, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrowers and their obligations, (g) with the consent of the Company or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.16 or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers; provided that the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender shall notify the Company as soon as practical in advance of any proposed disclosure pursuant to clause (c) above, unless such notification shall be prohibited by applicable law or legal process, so that the Borrowers may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender will disclose only that portion of the Information that it is advised by its counsel is legally required or otherwise necessary to disclose. For purposes of this Section 10.16, “Information” means all information received from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

10.17 Release of Guarantee Obligations.

(without vote or consent of any Lender or any Issuing Lender), take such actions as may be required to release all Guarantee Obligations of the Company and each Guarantor under any Loan Document, including the Guarantee Agreement. Any release of such Guarantee Obligations pursuant to this immediately preceding sentence above shall be deemed subject to the provision that such Guarantee Obligations shall be reinstated as to the Company or any Guarantor at the time of such release if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Company or such Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Company or such Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall, promptly upon the written request of the Company (without vote or consent of any Lender or Issuing Lender), release all Guarantee Obligations of any Guarantor (other than any Borrower) under the Loan Documents, including the Guarantee Agreement, if the Company shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Company to the effect that, at the time of such requested release, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing either immediately before or immediately after giving effect to such release.

Each Lender that is subject to the PATRIOT Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of Title III of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

10.19 Interest Rate Limitation.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, if at any time the rate of interest payable under any Loan Document (the “Stated Rate”) would exceed the rate of interest permitted to be charged under any applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”), then for so long as the Maximum Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable shall be equal to the Maximum Rate; provided that if at any time thereafter, the Stated Rate is less than the Maximum Rate, the Borrowers shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, continue to pay interest at the Maximum Rate until such time as the total interest received is equal to the total interest which would have been received had the Stated Rate been (but for the operation of this provision) the interest rate payable. Thereafter, the interest rate payable shall be the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again would exceed the Maximum Rate, in which event this provision shall again apply.

(b) In no event shall the total interest received by a Lender exceed the amount which it could lawfully have received had the interest been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Rate.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We, the issuing banks listed below (hereinafter referred to individually as an “Issuing Lender,” and collectively as the “Issuing Lenders”), hereby establish in your favor, for the account of ___________________ (the “Account Party”) this clean Irrevocable Letter of Credit No. _____________ in the amount shown above (the “Letter of Credit Amount”).

The Letter of Credit is not subject to any condition or qualifications not set forth herein.

The maximum liability of each Issuing Lender with respect to any demand for payment made hereunder shall be its Commitment Share of the amount of such demand for payment, as follows:



ISSUING LENDER	COMMITMENT SHARE	MAXIMUM SHARE OF LETTER OF CREDIT AMOUNT
	%	U.S. $
	%	U.S. $
	%	U.S. $
	%	U.S. $
TOTAL	100%	U.S. $

The obligations of the Issuing Lenders hereunder are several and not joint, and no Issuing Lender shall be responsible or otherwise liable for the failure of any other Issuing Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, nor shall the failure of any Issuing Lender to perform its obligations under this Letter of Credit relieve any other Issuing Lender of its obligations hereunder. This Letter of Credit has been issued as a single instrument by the Issuing Lenders solely as a matter of convenience to the Beneficiary, and shall have the same legal effect as if a separate letter of credit was issued by each Issuing Lender in the amount of its Commitment Share of the Letter of Credit Amount. U.S. Bank National Association, in its capacity as the Issuing Agent (as defined below), shall have no liability for the obligations of any other Issuing Lender hereunder, and shall not effect payment for any other Issuing Lender of such other Issuing Lender’s Commitment Share of any amount specified in a demand presented hereunder.

Each drawing honored by the Issuing Lenders shall reduce the Letter of Credit Amount pro tanto.

Subject to the further provisions of this Letter of Credit, demands for payment may be made by the Beneficiary on or prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below) from time to time hereunder by presentation to U.S. Bank National Association, solely as agent and attorney-in-fact for the Issuing Lenders (in such capacity, the “Issuing Agent”) of a draft signed by a person purporting to be an authorized officer of the Beneficiary. Such draft shall be presented at the Issuing Agent’s office located at U.S. Bank National Association, 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx: BC-MN-H20G, Xxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000, Attn: Standby Letters of Credit.

Each Issuing Lender hereby agrees that all demands for payment hereunder made in compliance with the terms of this Letter of Credit will be duly honored by it, severally, upon delivery of the draft as specified above and if presented at the Issuing Agent’s aforesaid office on or before the Expiration Date hereof. Each Issuing Lender’s Commitment Share of each drawing under this Letter of Credit shall be remitted to the Beneficiary by such Issuing Lender in accordance with the Beneficiary’s instructions. The obligation of the Issuing Lenders to honor demands for payment is not contingent upon reimbursement with respect thereto.

125

As used in this Letter of Credit, “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday and any day on which banking institutions in New York are authorized by law to close.

Only the Beneficiary may make a demand for payment under this Letter of^-Credit. Upon payment to the Beneficiary by an Issuing Lender of its Commitment Share of the amount specified in a demand presented hereunder, such Issuing Lender shall be fully discharged of its obligation under this Letter of Credit to the extent of its Commitment Share of such demand and such Issuing Lender shall not thereafter be obligated to make any further payments under this Letter of Credit in respect of such demand.

The term “the Beneficiary” as used herein includes any successor to the Beneficiary by operation of law. If a court of law appoints a successor in interest to the Beneficiary, then the term “the Beneficiary” includes, and, if the Issuing Agent has written notice thereof, is limited to, any court-appointed receiver (including any conservator, rehabilitator or liquidator).

This Letter of Credit shall expire at 5:00 p.m. (Central time) on __________ ___, 201_; provided, however, that such date (or any extended date) shall be automatically extended without amendment for one year unless at least 30 days prior to such date (or such extended date) the Issuing Agent has given the Beneficiary prior written notice of non-extension at the addresses shown above or at such addresses as the Beneficiary may have provided the Issuing Agent by prior notice thereof (such date, as so extended, shall be called the “Expiration Date”). No drawing may be made by the Beneficiary after the Expiration Date.

This Letter of Credit (and amendments, if any) must be returned to the Issuing Agent for cancellation with a statement signed by the Beneficiary and the Account Party stating that the Letter of Credit is no longer required and is being returned to the Issuing Agent for cancellation in order for it to be cancelled in advance of the Expiration Date.

This Letter of Credit is not transferable. [This Letter of Credit is subject to and governed by the laws of the State of New York and the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits of the International Chamber of Commerce 2007 Revision, Publication No. 600, and in the event of any conflict, the laws of the State of New York shall control. If this Letter of Credit expires during an interruption of business as described in Article 36 of said Publication 600, each Issuing Lender hereby specifically agrees to effect its payment if this Letter of Credit is drawn against within 30 days after the resumption of business.] [This Letter of Credit is subject to and governed by the law(s) of the State of New York, and the International Standby Practices 98 (ISP98) (International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 590). In the event of any conflict, the laws of the State of New York will control.]
